Email address pattern about git-secrets HOT 3 OPEN

What's the output of grep --version? How did you add the pattern to git-secrets? What does the pattern look like in your .git/config?

from git-secrets.

in my case I got the same result (Invalid range end):

git secrets --list

secrets.providers cat /path/to/credential/patterns.txt

patterns.txt content:

MY_KEY( )*=( )*[a-zA-Z0-9-_.]{90,}

I added as explained in the example:

git secrets --add-provider -- cat /path/to/credential/patterns.txt

What does the pattern look like in your .git/config?

[secrets]
	providers = cat /Users/elara/Documents/gitsec/credential_patterns.txt

[a-zA-Z\\-0-9]

If you're looking for a-z and A-Z and \ and -and 0-9 then you need to move the - to the end, otherwise grep is trying to match \-0 which is not a valid character range.
